IE11 to create the best compatibility for Win8.1

Computer shop news: Win8.1 is also released for a month, and many users who use Windows 8.1 in daily use still encounter a lot of small problems, such as built-in IE browser: IE11, facing the new version or The old version of the web page, talk about compatibility, so many users are distressed.

Is the compatibility of IE11 browser really so bad?

Actually, it is not because the Win8.1 platform has been redesigned for the IE11 browser's "user agent string". The new string is changed to: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; WOW64; Trident/7.0; rv: 11.0) like Gecko. And Microsoft's own IE is not in it. Therefore, the cause of the compatibility problem of IE11 was found. Because of the Gecko code, many websites, such as online banking sites or websites designed with IE standards, mistakenly identify IE11 as a big Firefox browser.

There are also many solutions: such as compatibility settings, adding web pages; or changing UAC in the F12 developer tool. But since every time I encounter a web page, it is really troublesome.

At this time, you can directly change the IE11's original web page compatibility by changing the IE11's “user agent string” directly with the powerful group policy of the system.

The operation is as follows:

1. Key combination Win+R, open the run dialog box, enter gpedit.msc, open the local group policy editor

2, left navigation bar, select computer configuration, management template, Windows components, enter Internet Exploerer options

3, in the right window, select “ custom user agent string & rdquo;, double-click to enable

4, enter the IE version string: & ldquo; MSIE 11.0”, confirmed to take effect. Of course, you can also enter IE8, IE9, IE10 and other versions

5. Close Group Policy and re-open IE11. At this time, our user agent string has been recognized normally

Finally, use the IE11 browser to browse the internet.
